This project will renovate the Betty White Health Center to a functioning modern facility required for support of KSU students residing on campus. Constructed in 1971, Betty White Health Center (10,400 gsf) is used as the University health center and nursing program clinical classroom space and office space. The facility was originally built as an infirmary and never renovated. Available space in the existing facility is inadequate and not well designed for the current Nursing program nor as a clinic for KSU students on campus. The School of Nursing will be relocated under the project “Construct Health Sciences Center”.

The building's systems have exceeded their useful life and are in need of replacement, rather than repair, including HVAC piping that has corroded and damaged exterior soffits. (C-PI)
